Property Reviews

Good work!A guest from Calgary, Alberta recommends this property.
Stayed for 9 days in April, 2015 Excellent location right off the main Waikiki area. Our favorite parts of the condo itself were the well supplied kitchen, very effective air conditioning, comfortable bed and great beach supplies (chairs, mat, etc). Jessica was a delight and very accommodating and knowledgeable. The condo was also very clean. Great job!

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate Mahalo for choosing to stay with Captain Cook Resorts and the great review and recommendation! We're so glad your visit was enjoyable. We will pass your feedback on to Jessica, your property manager; she's a real asset to the Captain Cook Resorts team!

Captain Cook staff goes beyond the call of duty!A guest from Corte Madera, California recommends this property.
Stayed for 6 days in December, 2014 Jessica checked us into the condo that is in a great location. She is professional and thoughtful. Later she became our Super Hero! Here's the story... We were in Honolulu for a local couple's wedding and planned on going to Kailua for lunch before the evening event. Other's had told us what a beautiful beach it was...It had rained so the parking lot was pretty empty... after a walk on the beach we came back to find the window smashed and my bag stolen (don't leave anything in the car or trunk in Kailua). EVERYTHING was gone in less than 30 mins.At the Police Station we called Captain Cook and spoke with Wendy, another Captain Cook Super Hero, who texted Jessica to change the door code and meet us back at the condo. She helped us call credit card companies and calm me down. We made it to the reception with her help. Without it, we would have miss the whole wedding.

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate We're sorry you had a bad experience during your stay, but are delighted and proud to hear that the great Captain Cook Resorts team sprang into action to help you out! Regardless of where in the world you travel, "Keep your valuables with you!" is a good principle to follow. Mahalo again - and we look forward to your next visit!

Anniversary VacationTeri B. from Lindsay, CA recommends this property.
Stayed for 9 days in December, 2014 The studio was wonderful! Very well located in Waikiki and the view was beautiful. The studio was clean and comfortable.

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate Mahalo for the positive comments and recommendation! We hope to see you again soon!

Marine Surf #2008 November 2014Mary C. from Ocean Shores, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 4 days in November, 2014 We enjoyed our 4 night stay at Marine Surf #2008. The condo was very comfortable and clean. It was quiet even though it is located in a busy part of Waikiki. We had planned on cooking several meals but we were busy being tourists so found reasonable meals at close by I-HOP, Seaside Grill and MacDonald's. If we return to Oahu again we will stay again at this facility.

nice place & convenient location to stay in waikikiA guest from Quezon City, Metro Manila recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in November, 2014 Arriving and leaving is easy and hassle-free. The place is situated near waikiki beach and royal Hawaiian center. The designated parking slot is great.The unit is clean and quiet at night. Unit just needs a kitchen exhaust so it doesn't smell like food after cooking.

Just what we were looking for!A guest from Emeryville, CA recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in November, 2014 Great 20th floor studio in the heart of Waikiki. Everything we needed or could have needed was just a few steps or short blocks away. Awesome city view and partial ocean view from lanai and beautiful larger ocean view from floor hallway balcony. Studio was fully equipped and made us feel like locals. We absolutely loved and appreciated the free parking stall! It gave us the freedom to come and go as we pleased without worrying about extra parking fees. Only 2 minor complaints we had was a part of the shower drain was falling off and was secured with tape and air conditioner would slightly leak onto the lanai when used for long periods of time. Very minor and didn't ruin our vacation. Highly recommended! Will definitely return when we are back on Oahu.

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate Mahalo for the great review and recommendation! Please tell your guest service manager about items needing attention while you're here so we can take care of them right away! We hope you can return for another stay soon!

Great location and amenitiesA guest from Pullman, Washington recommends this property.
Stayed for 14 days in October, 2014 Everything was as described and so expectations were met or exceeded. Free, easily accessible parking in a convenient Waikiki location was great. View was better than expected, kitchen was well appointed - I'll likely stay here again.

My 5 day stay in Waikiki was spectacular.Ernie D. from Whittier, CA recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in October, 2014 I was amazed at the location and amenities that was provided. I felt like I was home. There was a complete kitchen utensils provided never did I feel I needed anything. The location was perfect there were so many resturaunts, stores and fast food around. I would recommend to anyone staying in the Waikiki area.

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate Aloha and mahalo for taking the time to write a review of your recent stay at Marine Surf 2008! We're appreciate hearing about your great experience here - how it make you feel like you were home! Thank you also for the recommendation to your friends. Please let us know when you're able to plan a return visit!

Great Room and LocationA guest from APO, AP recommends this property.
Stayed for 8 days in June, 2014 Very easy to work with the staff and easy experience overall. The building is secure, has parking, great view from the room, and there's tons to do within walking distance. The beach is about 5min away - highly recommend!

More than expectedA guest from Pacifica, CA recommends this property.
Stayed for 6 days in May, 2014 I'm very fond of Captain Cook's management team because of my recent experience with them. Although my SO visited a different site, we blind-chose Marine Surf 2008 and ended up with all the amenities we requested. I especially love that the kitchen was fully-stocked for me to cook almost everything I wanted (with paper towels, extra towels for dishes, mittens, ovenware, trash bags, wax paper). There was also an ironing board with boogie boards & a snorkel set for use! I hadn't gone to the beach this time so didn't have the chance to use them, but it was a wonderful perk. Everything was clean. The air conditioner worked great. The view was pleasant. The shower head had multiple settings. The only downside may be the huge bug in the pool. A few TV channels were a bit pixelated but nothing a visitor to Oahu for island fun wouldn't complain about. It is a little inconvenient to beep in and out of the elevator, but that itself made me feel a lot safer. Thank you so much for the parking spot as well :) I will definitely come back and stay in a larger complex, and recommend this to my friends.

A wonderful Vacation the beautiful Island of Oahu!Clarence B. from Lutes Mt, N.B. recommends this property.
Stayed for 14 days in March, 2014 What can I say we were very pleased with our rental from the cleanest of our condo to the security of the building. We called from the airport & Paul was waiting for us to check in . The condo had everything we needed for our 2 week stay . Short walk to the beach , shopping & restaurant,s . I would highly recomend the Marine Surf.

Jan. & Feb. 2014Donovan W. from Ballston Lake, NY recommends this property.
Stayed for 60 days in January, 2014 We always enjoy our stays through Captain Cook, but are becoming alarmed at the sudden, steep increases in rental prices. Will we be able to continue coming to Hawaii for much longer?

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate Aloha and thank you for your comments. While nightly rental rates have risen slightly, large discounts for stays of 30+ nights has been discontinued for nightly rentals (as opposed to units that can ONLY be rented by the month). To find the best rates for stays of 30+ nights, you're best bet is to look for "monthly only" rentals. And we hope you DO continue to return to Hawaii!

A Very Convenient Location for a Honolulu VacationA guest from Annapolis, MD recommends this property.
Stayed for 8 days in November, 2013 We enjoyed our stay at the Marine Surf. It is close to shopping, tour buses, restaurants, and the beach.

Good location in WaikikiGordon T. from Surrey, British Columbia recommends this property.
Stayed for 8 days in September, 2013 This place served our needs perfectly. Good basic accommodation, centrally located in Waikiki. Easy to access and having the parking included is a real bonus as we had a car for our entire stay. Short walk to many restaurants and shops and of course the beach!

In the middle of WaikikiJason I. from Gardena, CA recommends this property.
Stayed for 6 days in August, 2013 Thanks to Paul Tucker he was great. helped me with a later checkout..and the nice man, I didn't get his name at the lobby desk for printing a document for me..A very nice condo with a good view of Waikiki...Close to everything the best part private parking stall included if you ever stay in a hotel or condo this seems to be hard to get, it can be very expensive if you had to pay extra per day

Great Place to StayA guest from Ft. McMurray, AB recommends this property.
Stayed for 10 days in August, 2013 This location was excellent! Everything in the unit was clean. The pool was a little dirty the day I went in it. Everything else was fantastic. There was even some beach stuff for us to use.

I would love to stay here againMichael G. from Chicago, Illinois recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in July, 2013 This is my third time visiting Oahu. My wife and I chosen to stay here instead of a hotel which we did the last two years. The condo was very clean and had everything you need to cook, which we did every morning and night to save money. We love the view from the lanai. We saw the fireworks from here like three times during are stay awesome! The condo had boogie broads and a beach umbrella which was super nice to have. The laundry room was right outside of are room. We spent most of the day out having fun but would love to stay here again.

Maunaloa ShoresA guest from Venice, Florida recommends this property.
Stayed for 4 days in July, 2013 Great location next to. Beautiful beach;however, some suggestions to make it an awesome vacation place: change blinds and living room furniture. Pillows also changed or cleaned better. Other than that clean place with great view. Nice kitchen and secure building. People were nice, especially resident neighbors that were helpful.

Waikiki June 2013Gavin L. from Sydey, NSW recommends this property.
Stayed for 3 days in June, 2013 Fantastic location, easy booking process. Will def be staying here again. Good to have a parking spot also included and beach accessories.

Marine sURF #2008John H. from Albany, AUK recommends this property.
Stayed for 11 days in May, 2013 This property is in an excellent location close to the heart of Waikiki. Ideal for a couple. Excellent presentation. Despite an initial hiccup due to our late arrival coming through US Immigration (Paul)the property manager came out very late at night to let us into the apartment. He was extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with.

First trip to HawaiiTom L. from Suwanee, GA recommends this property.
Stayed for 9 days in March, 2013 We found the condo very clean and with everything we needed to be comfortable. It was also close to shopping, tour pickup and the things we wanted to do on our first trip to Hawaii. The property itseld was well maintained and we were pleased with the location. My only recommendation would be to have a grab bar installed in the shower since some of us are a little older and feel better it we have something to hold on to. Otherwise a very good experience.

great locationA guest from Hiroshima, ---- recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in March, 2013 We enjoyed our stay at Marine Surf. The parking was secure...which was important to us. The location was right next to the International Market Place. The beach was walking distance and the area not too lonely but not too loud either.The building security was great. In addition to not being able to enter the building without a special "clicker" (attached to the keys), you couldn't push a button on the elevator with the "clicker" either.My only "complaint" was when we were leaving we were instructed to leave our keys and the "clicker" in the room (it was an auto-lock system). We did, but then we realized we needed the "clicker" to activate the elevator to take us down from the 20th floor. I wish the instructions would have warned us about this, so we could have first secured our elevator before locking the keys and the clicker in the condo.

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate The elevator will go to the lobby without the security "fob". We apologize for not thoroughly explaining that.

Captain Cook/Marine SurfDonovan W. from Ballston Lake, NY recommends this property.
Stayed for 60 days in January, 2013 Captain Cook is a great property management company. We have enjoyed many years of great service and wonderful properties. We have great confidence in them.

great xmas vacationPaula K. from Henderson, NV recommends this property.
Stayed for 12 days in December, 2012 love Marine Surf, have stayed many times over the last 20 years. #2008 is perfect for us, however, it would be nice if curtain liner was darker, rm to light at night. needs new egg pan (just minor fixes) we will be back next yr

Awesome!Jennifer S. from Naples, Florida recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in November, 2012 From the start of making reservations to being met at the condo Captain Cooks staff was extremely professional, friendly, and helpful. The condo was more beautiful than the pictures. Centrally located so there was no need for a car rental took the bus or walked everywhere. I was traveling alone so security was important to me. I felt safe in this unit. I was there for 7 days and felt like it was my home. Having the kitchenette was great as I could cook some of my meals. Nothing like having breakfast sitting on the lanai looking out at the ocean and mountains. Yes, there is street noise but with the lanai doors shut I didn't here it. Did get a wonderful view of the fireworks. I can't wait for my next trip and will definitely be contacting Captian Cooks for my rental!

Great RoomDavid M. from Las Vegas, NV recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in November, 2012 We stay at this property often and this is one of the best rooms. Located on the quite side of the building with a comfy bed.

a good condo for a good priceA guest from Bellevue, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 6 days in September, 2012 this condo was close to everything, food, shopping and the beach. everything is walking distance here. the condo itself was clean and had everything that we needed. for the price, I think this place was worth every penny! if you're looking for a 5 star hotel, this isn't it. but if you're looking for a place that is clean and has a kitchen so you can at least have the option of cooking if you want, then this place is perfect. oh yes and a 5 star hotel would cost you at least 2-3 times more :) the view wasn't great, but at the same time, the only time we were in our condo was when we were sleeping so it didn't really matter. overall good stay for a good price. would recommend it to others for sure!

30 Day StayA guest from Beaverton, OR recommends this property.
Stayed for 31 days in July, 2012 It was a great location, close to everything. Building was secure, which was very comforting. We had a minor issues to start, the sink drains became clogged. Paul was very helpful and probably went above and beyond to get it taken care of quickly for us. Overall the only thing that we noticed, was the unit had not been deep cleaned. It was not unreasonably dirty, and it was not exceptionally clean. It was nice that there were basic living supplies as well when we got there.

Great StayA guest from San Francisco, CA recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in April, 2012 We really enjoyed staying at Marine Surf #2008. It's in a great location and the room was quiet with a great view. The apartment was very clean and the property manager was responsive and friendly when we checked in. We appreciated the extra little things, like additional pillows, Kleenex, beach chairs, and a brand-new sponge for washing dishes. We would definitely return. My only gripe (which is not within the control of the property management company - they are great) is that the building doesn't have a recycling program - I felt guilty throwing so many recyclable items in the trash.

Enjoyable stay at the Marine Surf!A guest from St. Andrews, MB recommends this property.
Stayed for 32 days in February, 2012 Great building and location. Thanks to Paul for supplying us with beach chairs and an umbrella for our days at the beach. We really appreciated it.

Waikiki ExperienceA guest from Port Ludlow, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in January, 2012 Truncated view of surf zone with boarders and catamarans is interesting. Cooler evening temperatures last night of seven were welcome when a/c malfunctioned. A comfortable sitting chair would add to unit enjoyment.

Property Manager Response:Response from Captain Cook Real Estate Air Conditioner has been replaced.

Perfect for our needsA guest from Portland, Oregon recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in January, 2012 My sister and I stayed there together. It is perfect for 2 people. I had 3 requirements when looking for a place: a kitchen, lanai & a parking spot. This place had all three and was very reasonably priced. The pictures do do it justice and they have everything there you may need. I would definitely stay there again!

Very convenient locationA guest from Rockville, MD recommends this property.
Stayed for 8 days in December, 2011 Pluses: Convenient central Waikiki location, free parking space, lanai with view, well equipped kitchen, in-room wi-fi & phone, reasonable price, decent sized clean room.Cons: A bit noisy, in the evenings with rumbling of large hvac units in other buildings, in the mornings there's noise of big trucks and buses. Running the air conditioner and closing the lanai doors did help drown out that noise for sleeping.

Home Away From HomeA guest from Beaverbrook, NB recommends this property.
Stayed for 30 days in November, 2011 We loved staying here. It was a handy location, the rental was very satisfactory. We definately will not go back to hotel rooms! We will ask to stay again on a future trip for sure. Paul, was great!

Clean, Good Location...I got what i neededA guest from seattle, WA recommends this property.
Stayed for 7 days in October, 2011 Paul, the unit manager, made a wonderful plus. No 5 stars without his hospitability. The unit is well taken care of. It was clean and comfortable. The floor was high enough so I enjoyed quiet nights to sleep well, wake up, walk to the beach, and swim every day. Thank you.

Marine Surf accessible to every tourist destination in honoluluBenito T. from Quezon City, Phil recommends this property.
Stayed for 5 days in September, 2011 I stayed at the 20th floor and it was not noisy as what other guess commented. Public Bus and trolly is just seconds walk away from the building. The place is safe and secured.
